Macintosh Computers replaces the previous version of the guides. For this 
update we made the following additions and revisions: 


e Volume 1 covers all compact and portable Macintosh® computers—that 
is, all Macintosh computers that do not require an external monitor. 

¢ Volume 2 covers all modular Macintosh computers. 

¢ — The guides are slightly larger (8.5 inches by 5.5 inches) than the previous 
versions. 

e This release contains documentation on 13 additional computers. 














Organization 
Volume 1 of the Apple Service Guide for Macintosh Computers contains 
service and repair information for the following computers: 


e Macintosh 128K, 512K, 512K enhanced, and Plus 

e Macintosh SE and SE/30 

e Macintosh Classic®, Classic II, and Performa” 200 

¢ Macintosh Portable

Safety Warnings 


A Warning 


A Warning 


A Warning 


Make sure that you are not grounded when you work on plugged-in 
equipment. 


Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause severe damage to sensitive 
microcircuits. Macintosh circuit boards contain CMOS components, 
among the most sensitive chips in use today. CMOS chips, ROMs, and 
SIMMs are very susceptible to ESD and skin acid damage. To prevent 


A "dead" lithium battery is considered hazardous waste and has some 
potential for explosion if improperly handled. Mark the battery 
DEAD, place it in a zip-locked wrapper and the packaging used to 
ship the replacement battery. Return the dead battery to Apple, 
where it will be disposed of following EPA guidelines. Exception: If 
the battery is physically damaged, do not return it to Apple; dispose 
of the battery locally according to local ordinances. 


Introduction and Safety 





ESD Safety 


Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can irreparably damage the sensitive CMOS chips 
and printed circuitry of modern electronic components. Plastic utensils, 
polystyrene products, polyester clothing, even the ungrounded touch of your 
hand carry sufficient electrostatic charges to damage electronic components. 
Follow the ESD prevention rules and set up an ESD-safe workstation as 
directed below. 





ESD Prevention Rules 
1. 


A Warning 


Before working on a device containing a printed circuit, ground yourself 
and your equipment. Use a grounded conductive workbench mat and a 
grounding wriststrap, and ground your equipment to the mat. 





Make sure that you are not grounded when you work on plugged-in 
equipment. 





Do not touch anybody who is working on integrated circuits. You could 
“zap” the equipment through the technician—even if the technician is 
grounded. 

Use static-shielding bags for boards and chips during storage, 
transportation, and handling. Leave all Apple service exchange 
components in their ESD-safe packaging until you need them. 

Handle all ICs by the body, not the leads. Also, do not touch the edge 
connectors or exposed circuitry on boards or cards. 

Do not wear polyester clothing or bring plastic, vinyl, or polystyrene into 
the work environment. The electrostatic field around these 
nonconductors cannot be removed. 

Never place components on any metal surface. Use antistatic, 
conductive, or foam rubber mats. 

If possible, keep the humidity in the service area between 70% and 90%, 
and use an ion generator. Charge levels are reduced (but not eliminated) 
in high-humidity environments and in areas with ion generators. 

If an ESD pad/Avorkstation is not available, touch bare metal on the power 
supply to discharge electrostatic charges. 


Macintosh Computers, Vol. 2 3 








Setting Up an ESD-Safe Workstation 
Materials Required 

Conductive workbench mat with ground cord 

Wriststrap with built-in 1-megohm resistor and ground cord 
Equipment ground cord with alligator clips 

Ground/polarity tester 


1. 


Remove all ESD hazards from the area. Nonconductive materials (for 
example, polyester, plastic, vinyl, and polystyrene) cannot be grounded 
and retain charges for hours and even days. 

Use a ground/polarity tester to verify proper grounding of the power 
outlet. If the outlet is wired incorrectly, most testers show a light pattern 
that matches a code given on the tester. If the tester does not verify 
proper grounding, move to another outlet that is safe. 

Connect the grounding cord of the workbench mat to ground. 

Use a wriststrap grounding cord. Fasten it to the workbench mat and to 
the wriststrap. The wriststrap should touch your skin. 

Finally, ground the equipment you are working on. Use alligator clips 
and a grounding cord to attach any metal part of the equipment to the 
grounded workbench mat.

Module Symptom Codes 


10 





When returning a defective module to Apple, always enter on the SRO form 
the symptom code that best describes the problem. Do this as follows: 


1. Locate and note the three-digit symptom code from the Module 
Symptom Codes chart. 


2. Select the appropriate modifier code from the list below. This is the 
fourth digit of the symptom code. 


Code Modifier 

Continuous 

Intermittent 

Environmental/cannot duplicate symptom 
Always fails after awhile 

Depends on configuration 

Fails only with application software 

Noisy 

Inoperable upon first use 


ONOoaRWN — 


3. Write the four-digit code on the SRO form. 


For example: A Macintosh logic board crashes after being on for an hour or 
more. The symptom code is 153, “System bombs or crashes.” The board fails 
after it has been in use for awhile, so the modifier code is 4. Place the modifier 
code after the symptom code, and enter the error code 1534 on the SRO form.

Software Troubleshooting 





System-Crash Checklist 


~Y Check whether the problem is peculiar to one application (try 
replicating the problem using another application). If the 
application is at fault, consult the following chart for suggestions. 


Problem 


Program incompatible 
with MultiFinder 
(System 6 only) 


Program incompatible 
with system software 


Program corrupted 


Insufficient memory 
to run program 


Message “Application 
is busy or missing” 
displays 


Programs (especially 
DAs, INITs, and 
CDEVs) conflict 


Solutions 


oy OVS 


Try booting offending program first. 
Switch to Finder. 
Run program from original disks. 


Revert to older version of system software. 
Remove program from system. 
Contact vendor about program update. 


System crashes can corrupt program and system software. 
Remove program. 

Reinstall program and system software from original disks. 
Reinstall system software. 


lf under MultiFinder or System 7, close other applications and 
restart program. (You may have to restart system.) 

If under MultiFinder, switch to Finder (System 6 only). 
Allocate more memory to application. Select application, 
select Get Info from menu bar, and increase allocated 
memory in dialog box. (MultiFinder or System 7 only) 

lf applicable, check RAM cache. If cache is set too high, 
computer diverts some RAM for system use, thus reducing 
RAM available for programs. 

Install additional RAM. 


Make sure application is present on drive. 

Make sure document was created with same version of 
application as application on drive. 

Launch application first; then open document from application. 
Rebuild desktop. 

Reinstall application. 

Run a utility program, such as Norton Utilities, that resets 
corrupted bundle bits. 


Run Compatibility Checker before installing System 7. Remove 
or update any questionable INITs or CDEVs (System 7 only). 
If program was added just prior to problem, remove offending 
program. 

Remove all DAs, INITs, and CDEVs, and replace one ata 
time until offender is found. 


Macintosh Computers, Vol. 2 17 





~Y Check whether the problem is with system software (boot from a 
floppy) or with multiple system folders (use Find File). 


Problem Solution 

Multiple system — Remove all system folders except folder with Macintosh icon 
folders on it (see Desktop Procedures and Practices). 

Corrupted system — Replace system software. (When replacing corrupted system 
software software, avoid introducing new problems. Always use 


Installer on original system software disks; do not use 
System 6 Installer with System 7. If you remove System file 
before running Installer, you must replace fonts and desk 
accessories. Make copies of your customer’s fonts and desk 
accessories before running Installer. For more information, 
refer to Replacing the System File under Desktop Procedures 
and Practices. 





Desktop Procedures and Practices 


Identifying and remedying problems that may be software related requires 
familiarity with basic desktop management procedures and practices. An 
inappropriately managed desktop could cause the following problems. 


Multiple System Folder Problems 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 
Remeay: 


Procedure: 


System crashes; unusual error messages; font and DA lists change 
unexpectedly. 

When disks containing system folders are dragged onto system or system 
software is loaded without using Installer. 

Locate and remove all system folders without the Macintosh icon on the 
folder; also remove any extra System or Finder files. 

Boot from known-good system disk, use Find File to locate and remove 
multiple system folders, and reboot computer. 


INIT and CDEV Conflicts 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 
Remedy: 


Procedure: 


18 


This problem is very common under System 7. Be sure to run the 
Compatibility Checker before installing System 7. Remove any 
questionable INITs or CDEVs (or update them with newer versions and 
rerun the Compatibility Checker). 


System crashes and myriad of other problems. 

When INIT or CDEV conflicts with an application on system. 

Locate and remove all INITs and CDEVs, and then replace them one at a 
time until the conflict returns. 

Place all INITs and CDEVs in a separate folder within System Folder (this 
prevents INITs and CDEVs from loading when you boot system), and return 
each INIT and CDEV to System Folder one at a time. (Renaming an INIT, 
such as adding a prefix of “Z” so it loads last, may remedy the conflict.) 


On-Site Troubleshooting 





RAM Cache Out-of-Memory Problems 


Symptoms: 


Occurs: 
Remedy: 


Procedure: 


RAM cache is a feature that speeds up operation of the system. The RAM 
cache acts as a special RAM buffer between applications and drives. From 
32K to 768K of the most frequently used blocks of data can be stored in the 
RAM cache, which can significantly increase speed within an application 
and cause applications to launch from and return to the Finder more 
quickly. Memory problems can occur when the RAM cache is set too high. 


Insufficient memory problems; applications won’t run; degraded system 
performance; ID=28 system bombs in systems configured with 1 MB or less 
of memory. 

When RAM cache is set too high (available system memory is insufficient 
to run program). 

Switch off RAM cache, or reduce amount of memory allocated to RAM 
cache. 

Open Control Panel (System 6) or Memory Control Panel (System 7) and 
reduce RAM cache allocation as desired. Reboot system. 


Rebuilding the Desktop / Slow Finder 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 


Remedy: 


Procedure: 


Finder cannot locate applications that are on disk drive, or Finder is slow. 
When disk is overloaded with applications and icons, or applications 
contain excessive number of file comments. 

Rebuild desktop file (which erases comments from Get Info comment box 
of all applications on drive). 

Hold down <Option> and <Command> keys while booting, or while quitting 
application if operating in Finder. Click Yes in resulting dialog box to 
rebuild the desktop. 


Resetting Corrupted Parameter RAM 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 


Remedy: 
Procedure: 


Macintosh II does not boot from internal hard drive. 

When an application crashes, it sometimes executes code that corrupts 
parameter RAM (PRAM) on Macintosh II systems running system software 
prior to release 5.0. PRAM contains information required by the Macintosh 
operating system (OS) to start up from an internal SCSI drive, as well as 
other OS information. 

Reset PRAM to its default value. 

System 6: Hold down <Shift>, <Option>, and <Command> keys while 
opening Control Panel. Click Yes in resulting dialog box to clear PRAM, 
which resets some user options to their default values. 

System 7: Hold down <Option>, <Command>, <P>, and <R> during 
startup but before "Welcome to Macintosh" appears. (If using a Macintosh 
Il family computer with a color monitor, the monitor will default to 
monochrome; reset the color controls.) 


Macintosh Computers, Vol. 2 19 





Restoring Damaged Boot Blocks 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 


Remedy: 
Procedure: 


System does not recognize or boot from hard drive. 

When startup instructions (boot blocks) on the hard drive are damaged or 
the hard disk driver is damaged. 

Replace the hard disk driver. 

Boot the computer from a startup disk that contains an appropriate hard 
disk setup program. (For Apple hard drives, use the Apple HDSC Setup 
program found on a Macintosh System Utilities disk.) \nstall or update the 
hard disk driver on the hard drive. 


Removing and Preventing Viruses 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 


Remedy: 


Procedure: 


Prevention: 


Unexplained system crashes; corrupted or disappearing files. 

After using a disk or program that is infected by a virus (often contracted 
from shareware found on electronic bulletin boards). 

Use an antivirus program to eradicate the virus, and practice virus 
prevention in the future. 

Boot the computer from a startup disk that contains an antivirus application 
and launch the eradication program. There are several effective antivirus 
programs, including Disinfectant by John Norstad, /nterferon and Virex by 
Robert Woodhead, and SAM from Symantec. 

Many of the antivirus applications include programs for screening inserted 
disks for known viruses—use them! Also, master disks should be locked; 
applications can be protected by locking them using the Get Info box. If 
running System 7, be sure the virus utility is System 7 compatible. 
Incompatible versions can cause unexpected problems that are difficult to 
track down. 


Replacing the System File (System 6 only) 


Symptoms: 
Occurs: 


Remedy: 


Procedure: 


Apple Files: 
(System 6) 


20 


Minor, intermittent problems accessing disks, printing, starting system, or 
launching programs. 

When System file or related files are damaged, often from disk writing 
errors. 

Replace the System file using the Installer. To ensure that the problem is 
corrected, you should remove the entire System Folder before using the 
Installer. 

Copy all non-Apple System Folder files from the System Folder to another 
folder on the desktop (see list of Apple System Folder files below). Then 
drag the System Folder into the Trash and start up the Installer program 
from the original system software disk. Place the non-Apple files in the 
new System Folder. (For information about using the Installer, refer to 
"Replacing/Installing System Software" later in this section.)

System Failures 


You are experiencing a serious system failure if your screen fills with dots, 
strange patterns, or garbage characters, or your computer emits sounds similar 
to muted gunfire. Other system failures, often called crashes, can result in a 
hung system (for instance, your cursor is frozen in place on the screen) or a 
system bomb with an error message and ID number. Often your only 
alternative is to press the reset button on the programmer’s switch or restart 
the computer. However, if you encounter an alert box containing an error 
message and code, check the error code against one of the tables on the 
following pages. 


You can encounter three types of Macintosh system error codes: boot (Sad 
Mac®) error codes, system error codes, and negative value error codes. 
Explanations of these error codes can be found in the following tables. When 
possible, these explanations include suggestions that may help isolate the 
problem. Additional suggestions are given below on this page. If these 
suggestions and _ the software troubleshooting recommendations on the 
previous pages of this section do not help, you probably have a hardware 
problem. Refer to "Startup Problems—Flowcharts” later in this section. 





Introduction 


Sad Mac, system, and application error codes can help lead you to the source 
of the problem. If the error code tables do not recommend a solution, or the 
solution does not fix the problem, keep in mind that serious system failures 
can be caused by: 


¢ Software problems (damaged program or system files, incompatible INIT 
files) 

¢ Data problems (damaged or incomplete data files, corrupted PRAM) 

¢ Damaged boot blocks 

¢ Hardware problems 


To rectify system problems, try rebuilding the desktop and restarting your 
system. If this procedure does not rectify the problem, use another startup 
disk and try: 


Removing INITs from your system (especially INITs added recently) 
Checking the disk for a virus 

Replacing the System file and Finder using Installer 

Replacing the application with a fresh copy from the master disk 
Resetting PRAM 

Restoring the boot blocks 


Se oe 


For instructions on performing these procedures, refer to Desktop Procedures 
and Practices earlier in this section.

System Failure Codes 


22 





Sad Mac Error Codes 


If a Macintosh Plus fails at startup, you will see a Sad Mac icon and a six-digit 
error code. Ifa Macintosh SE fails at startup, the problem is usually bad RAM 
and you will see a 16-digit SIMM error code (see the Macintosh SE chapter in 
Volume 1). If other Macintosh computers fail at startup, you will hear a series 
of error chords (see Flowchart 2, Startup and Error Chords). 


Sad Mac error codes can mean that the computer has failed the internal 
diagnostic tests and you have a hardware problem. Sad Mac codes can also 
have less serious causes such as: 


¢ —Anon-system disk in the default drive 


e Abad boot disk = 
e — An incompatible system file on the boot disk 
¢ — No Finder on the boot disk 

e  Astuck programmer’s switch Sad Mac Icon

1 The first two digits indicate a RAM failure; the last four digits identify (in hexadecimal) the 

suspected bad chip. Try removing the SIMMs, rubbing the connection area with an eraser to 
improve the connection, and replacing the SIMMs. If this procedure doesn't help, isolate the 
bad SIMM (refer to Flowchart 3, SIMM Verification). 
"OF" indicates a software error—the startup device was spinning before the failure occurred. 
Try: (1) Restarting the computer with the <Option> and <Command> keys held down 
(rebuilding the desktop) or (2) Replacing the System file. 

3 Check the interrupt button—it could be stuck. 

4 The System file may be missing from the startup drive. 


On-Site Troubleshooting 





System Error Codes 


The two-digit system error code is located in the lower-right corner of the 
dialog box that informs you ”A serious system error has occurred.” Refer to 
the following two tables for a list of these codes and an explanation of their 


meaning. 


System Error Codes 


(eode [Tvs Meaning 


Bus error 


Program attempts to access an invalid memory location. Error is 
often caused by corrupt application. Replace application with 
known-good copy or upgraded version. If replacing software does 
not help, the problem is probably hardware related. 








Address error 


A corrupt application has placed program information in an odd vs. 
even address location. Install a known-good copy or upgraded 
version of the application. 





Illegal instruction 


Processor receives an instruction that does not match its internal list 
of instructions.

e System Self-Tests—Start up the customer’s system, listen for diagnostic 
error chords (see Flowchart 2, Startup and Error Chords in this section), 
and look for system error codes (refer to "System Failure Codes" in this 
section). 


e Diagnostic Software—If the system passes the self-tests but the problem 
persists, try running the appropriate MacTest™ program (refer to 
"MacTest" later in this section for MacTest versions and procedures). If 
you suspect a hard drive problem, you should also run the Macintosh 
Hard Drive Test program. 


e Symptom Charts/Module Swapping—If the customer’s system (or 
MacTest) does not boot or MacTest fails to find the problem, refer to the 
symptom/cure charts in the section that covers your customer’s 
computer. If you think you recognize the problem and you have the 
necessary replacement module with you, try module swapping. 


¢ Troubleshooting Flowcharts—If the customer’s system (or MacTest) does 
not boot or MacTest fails to find the problem and the problem is not 
clearly defined or not listed in the symptom/cure charts, refer to "Startup 
Problems—Flowcharts” at the end of this section. These flowcharts 
present a step-by-step procedure for isolating the problem. 


Macintosh Computers, Vol. 2 27

Hardware Troubleshooting Guidelines 


1. 
2: 


Use only known-good test equipment and diagnostic programs. 

The troubleshooting tools are designed to test a system in its minimum 
configuration. Disconnect external peripherals and remove all NuBus™ 
cards. After verifying that the computer is fully operational, reinstall or 
reconnect and test each expansion card and external device one at a time. 
When using the symptom/cure charts, always try the solutions one at a 
time, in sequence, until you fix the problem. If the problem remains, 
reinstall the original module before trying the next solution. 

The hardware troubleshooting flowcharts verify each repair action by 
looping back to the start (Flowchart 1). If a repair does not fix the 
problem, reinstall the original module, return to the flowblock of origin, 
and perform the next repair action on the list. 

When instructed to replace the logic board only, place the customer's 
SIMMs on the replacement logic board. Be sure to use the SIMM removal 
tool (see "Special Tools Index" under General Information). To test the 
customer’s SIMMs, refer to Flowchart 3, SIMM Verification, in this section. 
Always verify that the original problem has been fixed. To verify that the 
original problem is fixed, duplicate the conditions under which it 
appeared. To verify that there are no additional faults, run MacTest.

Things to Remember 


¢ Use Apple DiskCopy 4.2 to make a backup copy of the MacTest disks. Do 
not write-protect your working disk. 

¢ Some MacTest Pro bootable disks contain special System Enabler files for 
use on Macintosh Ilvi, IIvx, Performa, and Macintosh PowerBook 160/180 
systems. Do not remove these files from the bootable disks. 


Macintosh Computers, Vol. 2 39

If you cannot boot the MacTest disk: 

a. Check the power cable and internal cable connections. 

b. Refer to the appropriate symptom/cure chart, and replace the 
module(s) specified for your problem. 

(Macintosh Portable only) The power adapter must be connected to 

the Macintosh Portable for the AppleCat®/MacTest diagnostic to 

operate. 

The application memory partition of MacTest Pro is set to 800K, but 

1024K is the preferred setting. If the computer under test has more than 

2 MB of RAM, Apple suggests you set the application memory partition to 

1024K. (Click once on the the MacTest Pro application icon to highlight 

it. Select Get Info from the File pull-down menu and set the memory 

size to 1024K.) 

Do not press the reset or interrupt switch while the RAM test is running. 

Pushing reset causes the RAM test to fail, and pressing interrupt could 

damage the MacTest disk. 

After completing the repair, always run MacTest to verify that there are no 

other faults. 


Running MacTest 


1. 


op 


(Macintosh Portable only) Plug in the power adapter and connect it to 

the Portable. 

Connect the following loopback equipment: 

¢ For MacTest Pro: No loopbacks needed unless you're running the

e — Turn off screen savers before running tests. 

e Remove, disable, or turn off INITs, control panel devices (CDEVs), and 
desk accessories (DAs). 

e If you're using System 7, turn off virtual memory and file sharing, or use 
the Memory Control Panel to put the machine into 32-bit addressing 
mode. Then restart the computer. 

e Use the Chooser to set AppleTalk to Inactive, and then restart the 
computer. 

e When using Apple Video Cards Tests, Display Test Patterns, or Macintosh 
Quadra 700/900/950 Tests, initialize the attached monitors by using the 
Monitors Control Panel. 

¢ Do not launch or run other applications before, after, or while you are 
running diagnostic tests without restarting the machine. 

e After running destructive tests, save the test log if desired, and then 
restart the computer. Do not print the test log or run any other 
application before you restart the computer. 

e — Run tests twice if there is any doubt about test results or any question 
about the operation of the computer 

e Remove any test module files that aren't required. 


If you need additional information, refer to the documentation that 
accompanies the MacTest program.

SCSI Loopback Jumper 


The SCSI loopback card must be jumpered between J1 pin 25 and RP1 pin 14 
in order to be used with MacTest. New loopback cards have the jumper 
etched into the card circuitry. Older versions of the card need the jumper 
installed.

Figure 1 Older SCSI Loopback Card with Jumper 


Determining If a Jumper Is Needed 


1. Look at the part number on the back of the SCSI loopback card. 

2. If the part number ends with the letter A, the jumper is included in the 
card circuitry. 

3. If the part number ends with double zeros (00), check to see if the card 
has an external jumper installed from J1 pin 25 to RP1 pin 14. If there is 
no external jumper, install one. 


Installing the Jumper 


1. Locate J1 pin 25 and RP1 pin 14 on the SCSI loopback card (see Figure 1). 
J1 pin 25 is the pin closest to the upper-left corner of the card; RP1 pin 14 
is in the middle line of pins and closest to the left edge of the card. 

2. Solder a wire connection between J1 pin 25 and RP1 pin 14 on the SCSI 
loopback card.

RAM Upgrades 


Note 


Macintosh LC RAM Upgrade 


The Macintosh LC comes with 2 MB of RAM soldered to the logic board in 
bank A and two SIMM slots for expansion memory. You can expand RAM to 10 
MB, but only 1 MB RAM SIMMs are currently available for the Macintosh LC. 
When you expand system memory, fill both expansion slots with SIMMs of the 
same size. You can mix SIMMs of different speeds, as long as both SIMMs are 
100 ns or faster. 


Use the SIMM removal tool when removing SIMMs from the logic board. See 
"Special Tools Index" in the General Information section.

Macintosh II and Ilx Memory Upgrades 


The Macintosh II and IIx computers require 120 ns (or faster) SIMMs. The 150 
ns SIMMs will cause serious timing problems. All SIMMs in each bank must be 
the same size. Mitsubishi 1 MB SIMMs, which are labeled “For 030 Systems 
Only,” should be used only in systems with 68030 microprocessors.

Apple SuperDrive Upgrade 


System software must be version 6.0.2 or higher to use the 1.4 MB Apple 
SuperDrive. If the software version is lower than 6.0, the computer will 
mistake the 1.4 MB drive for an 800K drive. 


1. Place the Macintosh II on the grounded workbench pad and put on your 
grounding wriststrap. 

2. Remove the top cover, video card (and any other cards installed), and the 
drive mount. 

3. Using an IC extractor, remove the four ROMs at the logic board locations 
shown in Figure 4.

6. Position the SWIM chip (see Figure 4) so that the beveled edge with the 
white dot faces the white dot on the logic board. 

7. Align the pins in the socket and gently press straight down on the SWIM 
chip until it seats in the socket. 

8. Install the 1.4 MB Apple SuperDrive onto the drive mount on drive 1 or 
drive 2. 

9. Replace the drive mount, the video card (and any other cards that you 
removed), and the cover. 

10. Place the 1.4 MB and 800K labels in the appropriate positions on the 
front of the Macintosh II. 


PMMU Upgrade 


1. Remove the Macintosh II cover and drive mount. 

2. Locate the HMMU chip on the logic board (see Figure 4). 

3. Using a small, flat-blade screwdriver, gently pry up the sides of the chip to 
remove the HMMU from the socket. 

4. Position the PMMU so that the line on its surface points toward the 
speaker at the lower-right corner of the logic board. 

5. Align the pins in the socket and gently press the PMMU into the socket. 

6. Replace the Macintosh II drive mount and top cover.

SCSI Termination—Macintosh Ilfx 


Caution 


80 


The Macintosh IIfx computer can transfer data to and from SCSI devices much 
faster than earlier Macintosh computers. This increased data transfer rate has 
made it necessary to modify the termination characteristics of the SCSI interface. 
Three new parts are used to implement these SCSI termination changes: 


e Apple SCSI Cable Terminator II 
e Internal SCSI Termination Block 
e Internal SCSI Filter 


Apple SCSI Cable Terminator Il 


To provide proper termination, you must install a SCSI Cable Terminator II 
when an external SCSI device is attached to a Macintosh IIfx. Rules for using 
and installing the Terminator II are the same as those for the original SCSI 
terminator. The plastic on the Terminator II is black, whereas the plastic on 
the original terminator is blue. 


Use only one Cable Terminator II on a SCSI daisy chain. Connecting more 
than one terminator can damage the Macintosh IIfx. 


Internal SCSI Termination Block 


The termination block must be installed to provide internal SCSI termination 
for systems without an internal SCSI hard drive. Apple installs this termination 
block (and the internal SCSI filter) on all Macintosh IIfx systems shipped 
without internal SCSI drives (see Figure 5). 


The termination block is located on the logic board's SCSI connector. You 


must remove the termination block when you add an internal SCSI drive to the 
system.

Figure 5 Macintosh Ilfx Without Internal SCSI Drive 


Internal SCSI Filter

SCSI 

Terminator 
Block 


Internal

Filter 









The SCSI filter must be installed to provide the proper termination capacitance 


for third-party drives and for Apple internal drives shipped before 3/19/90. 


When you install a SCSI drive in a Macintosh IIfx computer that shipped 
without a SCSI drive, you must remove the SCSI filter from the Macintosh IIfx 
logic board and install the filter on the drive.

SIMM Replacement—Macintosh Ilfx 


82 


Some Macintosh IIfx computers and 4 MB expansion memory kits have 
defective DRAM chips from NEC. The defective NEC SIMMs, which have date 
code 9052 or lower, should be replaced. Locate the date code as shown in 
Figure 6. 


Computers using these defective SIMMs can experience a variety of failures, 
including: 


¢ Computer does not boot. 

¢ Computer hangs on first application launch. 

¢ Computer boots but loses video (memory related). 
¢ Computer sounds error chords. 

¢ Computer display exhibits ghosting. 

¢ Computer displays an ID error and locks up.

Memory Upgrades 


The Macintosh IIvx, IIvi, and Performa 600 computers require 80 ns fast page 
mode SIMMs. Slower SIMMs will cause serious timing problems. All four 
SIMM sockets must be filled and all SIMMs must be the same capacity and 
speed. You can use 256K, 1 MB, 2 MB, 4 MB, or 16 MB SIMMs. The list below 
shows the memory configurations for Macintosh IIvx, IIvi, and Performa 600 
computers.

DRAM Upgrade 


130 


The Macintosh Quadra 900 ships with four 1 MB DRAM SIMMS on the logic 
board; the Macintosh Quadra 950 ships with eight 1 MB DRAM SIMMs. You 
can increase the amount of memory (up to 64 MB) by installing additional 
SIMMs in an empty SIMM bank or by replacing the original 1 MB SIMMs with 
larger 4 MB SIMMs. 


The Macintosh Quadra 900 and 950 have four banks of DRAM SIMM sockets 
(banks A, B, C, and D, shown in Figure 2). Each bank contains four slots. 
When installing DRAM SIMMs in the Macintosh Quadra 900 or 950, the 
following rules apply: 


¢ — Use DRAM SIMMs that are 80 ns or faster (SIMMs with slower ratings will 
cause serious timing problems and system crashes). 


¢ — Fill each bank with DRAM SIMMs or leave each bank empty. 


e A filled bank must have four DRAM SIMMs of the same size (four 1 MB 
SIMMs or four 4 MB SIMMs). 


To install a SIMM, hold it by its edges with the contacts pointing down. Insert 
the SIMM at an angle (bottom forward) into the SIMM slot. Push back on the 


top corners of the SIMM. You will hear a click when the SIMM snaps into 
place.

VRAM Upgrade 


The Macintosh Quadra 900 and 950 ship with 1 MB of VRAM soldered on the 
logic board. You can increase the amount of VRAM to 2 MB by installing 
additional VRAM SIMMs, as the following procedure explains. 


The Macintosh Quadra 900 and 950 have two VRAM SIMM sockets (J3 and J4, 
shown in Figure 3). Each socket can hold up to two 256K VRAM SIMMs. When 
installing VRAM SIMMs, the following rules apply: | 


e Use VRAM SIMMs that are 100 ns or faster (SIMMs with slower ratings will 
cause video timing problems). — 


e Fill both VRAM SIMM sockets or leave both sockets empty. 
e Filled SIMM sockets must contain four 256K VRAM SIMMs. 


To install a SIMM, hold it by its edges with the contacts pointing down. Insert 
the SIMM at an angle (bottom forward) into the SIMM slot. Push back on the 
top corners of the SIMM. You will hear a click when the SIMM snaps into 

place.

Installing a SCSI Storage Device 


The Macintosh Quadra 900 and 950 support a variety of Apple and third-party 
internal SCSI devices including 3.5" and 5.25" hard drives, CD-ROM drives, 
removable cartridge drives, digital audio tape (DAT) drives, and drive arrays. 
These computers support a maximum of four devices, including the built-in 
Apple SuperDrive. 


When installing a SCSI storage device, remember the following: 


e Remove termination resistors before installing a device. The Macintosh 
Quadra 900 and 950 have built-in termination. Failure to remove the 
termination resistors from installed devices can result in damage to the 
logic board. 

¢ The power supply provides a maximum of 303 watts. 

¢ Unplug the computer before beginning any take-apart or upgrade 
procedure. The power supply provides continuous power to the system 
to support back-up power to NuBus cards. You can damage the logic 
board and NuBus cards by not removing power prior to beginning. 


To install an internal SCSI device in the Macintosh Quadra 900 and 950: 
1. Remove the side cover. 


2. Disconnect the floppy drive and hard drive data cables from the logic 
board and the hard drive power cable from the power supply (Figure 4).

Note 


3. Remove the two drive shelf screws, slide the drive shelf toward the rear of 
the computer, and carefully lift the shelf out of the case. 

4, Install the SCSI device in the drive carrier as shown in Figure 5. Be sure 
to connect the SCSI select switch. Also, verify that the device is not 
terminated. 


Fixed-media devices (Winchester hard drives or drive arrays) can be - 
installed in any open position. 


Removable-media devices (DAT, CD-ROM, or removable hard drives) 
must be installed below the floppy drive. (You must remove the floppy 
drive first. You will also need to replace the blank bezel with the bezel 
supplied with the device. See Service Source for step-by-step 
instructions.)
